Agreed, it is more like his power to point ratio is very very good. He would still a beast at 60 points, but may leave room for other options to out perform him.

What do you think the best squad for him is, if 2 point pieces are not possible and double swap is not viable? What squad do you normally play him in? I'm interested in your opinion because you've been very consistent in saying you believe that Boba is too strong.

Something like this sthlrd2 squad?:

--Mandalorian Assassin for Hire--
50 Boba Fett, Assassin for Hire
38 Mandalore the Resurrector
28 Kelborn
28 Neo-Crusader Officer
27 Mirta Gev
12 Mandalorian Counter-Intelligence Officer
8 R7 Astromech Droid
3 Mouse Droid
6 Ugnaught Demolitionist x2
(200pts. 10 activations)

I've always thought that Vindicated squads are the most abusive use of the Neo-Crusader Officers, 30 base damage and not needing Mirta Gev are advantages, but Boba probably needs a look as well. Do you think the problem is the scope of the Neo-Crusader Officer's CE, or Boba himself, in this situation?

this would fall under the neo-crusader in my opinion.

Musing on Wrist Cable for a bit, what if, instead of a save of 11, the targeted character could avoid it by making a successful attack roll against a def of somewhere from 16 to 20? This would make Wrist Cable unable to capture most bigger beatsticks, but instead be good at incapacitating non-combatants.

Isn't there a way to make Bobba subject to Vong abilities? Or at least CE? If do I'm sure you can abuse him there

Since this is an open discussion, let me start with a little back story. I was a dedicated player back in the WotC days. I left the game because the game was stopping production and I had no idea about this sight or other people trying to keep the game alive. I recently found out about all of this and became re-interested (if that's a word) in the game. I attended the regional tournament in WLafayette, IN. I met a lot of great people and had a blast!! I got my butt kicked, because I had an outdated, small act, WtoC only squad. Still had a blast. Learned a lot about the direction of the game and am excited. I read about things that are "broken" in the game, people getting crazy upset about a game. A GAME?? I am excited about the fact that other than getting some pieces for proxy's and multiples of characters, I don't have to really invest money into the game. Yes I am happy to donate but I don't have to spend Hundreds of $ to play a very entertaining game in a genre that I am a super DORK about.

In my opinion, I think the game is progressing wonderfully, I see people complaining about things that they want changed in the game because that's the way "WE" want it, and now that "WE" are in charge of it, "WE" think things should change at the drop of the hat. I disagree, we have a balance team in place. Let them fix it. It's a game, play it. I love it. I am hoping to get more than the 4 players in NW Ohio that I play with involved. I WANT A REGIONAL IN OHIO NEXT YEAR!!!!!

well, welcome to bloomilk, and its great that you love the game, and are trying to expand/keep it going.

To just sit back and let the balance team fix the game...hmmmm the balance team is a brand new thing so the jury is out on how it will do. (personally I think they will do pretty well.) But that being said the balance team still needs us to bring things to their attention and to give them a different perspective, it doesn't mean EVERYTHING that is brought up needs to be changed, but it at least gives them a starting point on where some of the community is, and may help guide where some of their attention should be placed.

here's to wishing the balance team well!!!

Welcome to the Dork Side. What's your name again?
